When thought stops, a doorway opens into dimensions that are pure and unassociated. They're nonbinding realities. They're non-samskaric, which simply means that they're beautiful they're ecstatic.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Whenever anybody does well spiritually, I usually ignore them. It's the greatest compliment I can pay them.
Frederick Lenz
Image
The Buddhist message is a message not of the negation of life, but one of affirmation.
Frederick Lenz
Image
You don't have to do anything to meditate. That's what makes it so difficult. Everybody wants to do something.
Frederick Lenz
Image
There comes a time in life when you just buckle down and have a good time with what you're doing. It doesn't matter much what you're doing. What matters is how you do it.
Frederick Lenz
Image
Pain and suffering only occur in temporal time. They don't occur in the world of forever. They only occur in limited transient time, which is a state of mind.
